Lyndsay Leigh Madden, DO, is an Associate Professor of Otolaryngology at Wake Forest Baptist Hospital. A native of Kentucky, Dr. Madden received her bachelor’s degree in Biology and Psychology from the University of Pikeville in 2005. She went on to earn her medical degree from Kentucky College of Osteopathic Medicine in 2009, and, upon graduation, completed otolaryngology residency training at Ohio University. After residency, she accepted a fellowship in Laryngology and Care of the Professional Voice at the University of Pittsburgh Voice Center, where she completed her training in 2015.
Dr. Madden is a board-certified otolaryngologist whose scope of practice encompasses all aspects of laryngology, including disorders affecting voice, breathing, coughing, and swallowing, as well as other throat symptoms. Her current research interests lie in patient safety and quality improvement, neurologic disorders of the larynx, swallowing disorders, and health equity in laryngology.
A longtime fan of choral music and musical theater, Dr. Madden has a deep appreciation of the vocal skill and technique that are required during such performances, and it was this that led to her fascination with the science of voice and voice production. She feels fortunate to care for her patients and treat all aspects of laryngology—voice, swallowing, and airway disorders.
Dr. Madden currently serves as the President of the American Osteopathic Colleges of Ophthalmology & Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery and also sits on the boards for the North Carolina Society of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery and the Alliance for Voice, Airway and Swallowing. She is passionate about advocacy in our field.
Seeing her patients’ quality of life improve through treatment is the greatest reward of Dr. Madden’s career. When it comes to patient care, she approaches each patient with an open mind and utilizes an individualized treatment plan through a multi-disciplinary team approach.
